It may seem that Elche and Getafe are in absolutely no danger on this final day of the Union, where both have arrived with the goal of permanence. They also do so after they have had spectacular responses to negative situations. Franjiverdes and azulones are two excellent examples of teams correcting their course after changes on the bench. Fran Escribá and Míchel were replaced by Francisco and Quique Flores. What was portrayed as a drama ended in a romantic comedy as the two teams fell in love with their hobby..
The people of Elche and Getafenses can plan this match in the hammock with a very cold cocktail, and they think of the vacation spots that every football player will choose for the next month of their life, to earn the right to vacation. . But reality points to a very different situation. And not just because of the professional honor that must be given to every athlete until the last minute of their competition. Elche is well aware of this, having a barbaric example not so long ago in Deportivo de la Coruña. holiday starts monday.
And they do it above all for money. It’s not about cheating. One of LaLiga’s recent developments has been the award, which is awarded not only for persistence, but also for the last position at the table at the end of the tournament.. In this way, being eighth is no longer the same as being seventeenth. Without going any further, Elche is playing more than three million euros in this afternoon’s game. Not bad for the official look of the duel against the Azulón team.
With the juicy fixed fixed to compete in Part One (this course was just over €36m), now it’s time to distribute the “peak” of the variable by position. In the best case, the franciverdes could finish twelfth and pocket an extra 8m euros for it.. In the worst case they would have finished sixteenth, so the revenue would be 4.5 million. Three and a half “kilo” difference. There will be those who think that billing this amount is not easy.
This bonus does not only concern the club, but also players and coaches who agree on more or less bonuses depending on the amount to be received. Getafe will be in the same situation. Currently both teams are on the same level in points, Madrid are leading, but as soon as Cuadra Fernández signals the start of the match, the positions will change, as Franjiverdes won in the first round match (0-1, goal by Lucas Perez).
Putting capitalism aside and returning to the purest essence of sport, the honor of competition, the team led by Francisco embarks on the final “battle” of the course, hungry to say goodbye with the best emotions possible. He took first place as he gave his fans one final victory and didn’t end the season with a 5-day losing streak without a win.. Secondly, as the people of Elche have the option to achieve the highest category score record in the history of existence. They stopped at 39, but 41 in 2014/15 are still achievable. Of course, the record has a trick, as the maximum number of victories in the same League (14, 1964/65) is quite far. Back when winning was two points, not three as it is now.
Neither Captain Gonzalo Verdú nor the two Franjiverdes, Mojica and Boyé, who will have the most “girlfriends” over the summer, will be available for this farewell day. All injured. Marcone is suspended. Kiko Casilla will defend the goal and many unknowns are revealed as some football players have been hanging by a thread for several weeks. Francisco doesn’t force anyone, neither injured nor possibly sanctioned.
Players who jumped into Martínez Valero this afternoon in a more typical August heat from May will not all be wearing green stripes again. The game will be especially emotional for those who played their last minutes with Elche. Among them, the aforementioned Casilla or Pastore stands out, which may even be just the beginning. Others, like Omar Mascarell, who has terminated his contract, will pack their bags wide open to return in July if they choose..
This is how Elche bids farewell to a season that ends with the main incentive to aim for drama and to finish the win as high as possible, thereby increasing revenue significantly.
